Booked food and drinks for some Friday night fun...having been to a Comedy Club at the Yorkshire Playhouse on a Sunday last year, was looking forward to starting the weekend off with fun. 1. Do not confuse the Friday night at Bar Risa's (alleged) night club with the fantastic venue at The West Yorkshire Playhouse. They are different events and... More

Not a bad place but seriously needs to get the floors into the ladies bathroom fixed. I was in no way drunk as I am pregnant and nearly went flying due to the chunks missing out of the floor that didn't even have any warning signs and watched another girl do the same thing. At least get some warning signs... More

Many people watch stand up on TV or at established clubs like the Comedy Store in London and hope for the same at Jongleurs. Don't expect it unfortunetly. The stand up is usually vulgar and terrible, the food is awful and they cram you in like sardines for really poor quality comedy from amature "we just need somebody cheap" entertainers.... More

First time at the Jongleurs on Saturday 19 Sept. Had a great night and will definately go again. There were 6 comedians most were really good although you do need to be broad minded for some of the jokes! The show was fast paced and the comperes were excellent. The food was Ok. Typical fast food but for just over... More

Anyone who is thinking of Going on a Stag Doo to Leeds and visiting Jongleurs comedy club - DON'T BOTHER!!! Check out theIr Website: "Eat, drink, laugh and dance all in one venue at Jongleurs for the ultimate stag night" What they don't tell you is that you're not allowed to talk, and not allowed to give any light hearted...

Don't waste your money at this venue. THE STAFF are incredibly RUDE. You expect to be treated well, but it's quite clear once you have paid that's all that matters here. They definately need teaching some good quality customer service. The comedian's if you can call them this, are quite simply NOT funny. It was typical seaside humour, they are... More
